....for saying "nappy headed hos". He's off TV and radio. Personally, he's never been my favorite but I like him more than the Reverend Al Sharpton!

Where is this vaunted Freedom of Speech spoken of in the bill of rights????? He used verbage you can hear on any hip hop/rap station is it only racism when a white person says it???? Or are Sharpton and Jessie going after all the rappers too????? Bet not. I am so tired of this bull if those players at Rutgers took it as an insult then they have much to high of an opinion of themselves imo. We have a lot to do in life and going around looking for an insult when one isn't intended is bs. Why let him or anyone else have that much power over you?????

I'm a huge Don Imus fan, I've listened to him every morning on the way to work for years. The man has done a lot of good for a lot of people. When this controversy first broke I took his side, but now I don't know.
The women on the Rutgers basketball team are role models, perfect examples of the success that honest, hard work can achieve. At the high point of their lives they deserve better than to be referred to in such gangsta' rap rhetoric. Ultimately, Don Imus' future rests in their hands.

as far as being off tv who watched msnbc anyway. he however is only on a two week hiatus on radio. I personally don't like his radio program but still this much to do over nothing is ridiculous.
